Dublin Blues

Well, I wish I was in Austin, huh-huh
At the Chili Parlor Bar
Drinking Mad Dog Margaritas
And not caring where you are

But here I am in Dublin, huh-huh
Rolling cigarettes
I'm holding back and choking back
The shakes with every breath

So forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
There's no need to forgive me
For thinking what I thought
I loved you from the get go
And I'll love you 'til I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye

Well, I am just a poor boy, huh-huh
Work's my middle name
If money was a reason
Well, I would not be the same

I'll stand up and be counted, huh-huh
I'll face up to the truth
I'll walk away from trouble
But I can't walk away from you

So forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
There's no need to forgive me
For thinking what I thought
I loved you from the get go
And I'll love you 'til I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye

And I have been to Fort Worth, huh-huh
And I have been to Spain
And I have been too proud
To come in out of the rain

And I have seen the David, huh-huh
I've seen the Mona Lisa too
And I have heard Doc Watson
Play Columbus Stockade Blues

So forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
There's no need to forgive me
For thinking what I thought
I loved you from the get go
And I'll love you 'til I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye

Well I wished I was in Austin, huh-huh
At the Chili Parlor Bar
Drinking Mad Dog Margaritas
And not caring where you are
